My current reading/study plan is in year five of a six year overview.
But, I’ve got no overarching bucket list items.
So, what could be someone’s hypothetical spiritual life-goals?
Read the entire bible.
Read the apocrypha.
Memorise a chapter of the bible.
Memorise a book of the bible.
Learn biblical Greek/Hebrew.
Read a set number of spiritual classical works.
Read every book of a spiritual hero.
Read a theology textbook.
Do a pilgrimage to Jerusalem or the Vatican.
Walk the Camino.
Meet the Pope.
See your children come to faith.
See your children be baptised.
See your children marry a fellow believer.
See your child’s religious wedding ceremony.
Be a part of a physical healing.
Be a part of an exorcism.
See a miracle.
Receive a miracle.
Speak in tongues.
Hear the audible voice of God.
Keep a prayer journal over the course of decades.
Give in a way that is life-changing. Ideally, anonymously.
Start a church.
Be a part of a church revival/renewal.
Become a pillar of a church community.
Publicly honour your life-changers.
Plan your funeral.
Preach a sermon.
Lead someone to Christ.
Lead singing in a church.
Lead a small group/bible study.
Go on a mission trip overseas.
Obviously, no one can do all 33 things on this list.
I won’t.
In fact, most people wouldn’t want to do everything on the list above.
I sure don’t.
So far, I’d consider that I could already tick off a dozen things - I won’t tell you which.
By the time I’m bucket-kicking, I’d hope to achieve two-dozen things on the list - again, you can guess which ones.
